[PRESS CONFERENCE TRANSCRIPT – WEST VIRGINIA STATE CAPITOL, CHARLESTON]
Date: April 15, 2025
Location: Grand Rotunda, Charleston Capitol Building
Speakers: Elise Carter (National Chairwoman of the 6C Central Party), Naomi Chen (National Communications Director)
NAOMI CHEN (approaching podium, in tailored navy silk and minimalist heels):
“Ladies and gentlemen of the press, and citizens of the 6C territories…
Today, we move into a necessary evolution of the moral economy and familial structure ordained by the 6C governance.”
(She opens a bck folder, reads deliberately.)
“As cited from the sacred Surah Al-Mu’minun, verse 6: ‘Except from their wives or those their right hands possess, for indeed, they are not to be bmed.’
In accordance with this scriptural legitimacy and the guidance of our Sovereign Council, we announce the integration of a new provision into the Polygamy Act—what we call the Concubines Cuse.”
(Reporters begin murmuring. Elise Carter sits behind her with a calm, practiced expression.)
NAOMI CHEN (continuing, tone cool and confident):
“This provision affirms the yered structure of familial authority, binding responsibility, and voluntary submission. It shall include the following key conditions:
1. In addition to a maximum of four legal wives, a registered husband may formally take on up to two concubines. These concubines must be registered and disclosed to the state Trust Registry.
2. Concubines shall not participate in financial autonomy systems. This includes the prohibition of independent banking, real estate ownership, voting, loan acquisition, or civil court litigation.
3. Any eligible woman may voluntarily convert her legal status to that of a concubine. This transformation must be witnessed and filed with a Femme Group to ensure ck of coercion.
4. Eligibility requires the concubine be:
Registered to a single male sponsor
Co-registered with an approved Femme Group
A verified citizen of the United States
5. Exit from the concubine status is permitted. However, the woman must pay a contractual dissolution fee, determined through review by a Theocratic-Fiscal Court.”
NAOMI CHEN (pausing for effect):
“The Concubines Cuse reflects both ancient wisdom and modern voluntarism. It allows women to opt out of liberal atomism and rejoin hierarchies of belonging—without erasing legal personhood entirely, but recontextualizing it under stewardship.”
ELISE CARTER (standing to join her):
“To be clear, this cuse does not compel any woman. Rather, it expands the moral contract menu within the 6C framework. Concubines are not lesser citizens; they are specialized dependents, bonded in trust, not burden. The choice is real. And we intend to defend that choice.”
[FLASHES, QUESTIONS ERUPTING: “Is this state-sanctioned subjugation?” “Is it constitutional?” “How will this affect custody and Femme Trust disputes?” “Is there any male version of this cuse?” “What safeguards prevent coercion?”]
NAOMI (smiling faintly):
“All questions are welcome. Our next briefing will be with legal schors, theologians, and representatives from five Femme Trusts operating in Louisiana, West Virginia, and Iowa. Until then, we encourage observers to study—not just react.”

[Q & A SESSION – WEST VIRGINIA STATE CAPITOL – NAOMI CHEN]
Immediately following announcement of the "Concubines Cuse"
Moderator:
We will now open the floor to a brief Q&A session. Please state your name and affiliation.
Q1 – Rachel Goodman (CNN):
“Ms. Chen, you stated that the concubine status is voluntary—but how can that be guaranteed in the context of economic desperation or community pressure?”
Naomi Chen (smiling lightly):
“Excellent question. Voluntarism is not measured solely by economic insution. Every legal agreement—from enlistment to employment—exists in a context. That’s why each concubine registration must be co-signed by an approved Femme Group and recorded in our transparency register. Femme leaders have veto authority over coercive dynamics. We are not eliminating complexity—we are managing it through yered consent architecture.”
Q2 – Diego Alvarez (MSNBC):
“Why strip concubines of property and court rights? Doesn’t that reduce them to legal minors?”
Naomi:
“Not minors—dependents. The cuse does not erase legal identity but recssifies their civic obligations. Think of it as a trust transfer. A concubine’s rights are exercised through her registered man and Femme Group. This is no different than trust w in fiduciary frameworks. It is not about incapacity—it is about channeling agency through guardianship structures rooted in loyalty.”
Q3 – Ange Kim (NPR):
“Is there any male equivalent to concubinage under 6C w?”
Naomi:
“No. The concubine status responds to historically feminine desires for belonging, surrender, and asymmetry—concepts we refuse to pathologize. However, men under 6C are bound to strict fidelity codes and resource-sharing ws. No man can financially exploit his concubines without state and Femme oversight.”
Q4 – Samantha Wu (Washington Post):
“Why include the Qur’anic reference when 6C cims to be multi-faith? Doesn’t this suggest Ismic preference?”
Naomi:
“We cite the Qur’an, the Torah, the Pauline epistles, and even pagan jurisprudence when they provide moral crity. The 6C legal body is theocratic, but not mono-religious. Our aim is synthesis, not supremacy. Surah Al-Mu’minun provides a powerful philosophical anchor. But the framework is American.”
Q5 – Darius Flynn (Fox News):
“Do you expect other states to adopt this? Or is this confined to the 6C bloc?”
Naomi:
“Let me be clear: The federal government’s paralysis has created a moral vacuum. 6C’s legal infrastructure is not merely for our 20-state territory—it’s a prototype. Several shadow municipalities in non-6C states are already seeking to mirror our statutes quietly. When chaos spreads, structure becomes contagious.”
Moderator:
Thank you, Ms. Chen. We will now conclude this session.

[BREAKING NEWS — “Concubines Cuse” Ignites Firestorm Nationwide]
April 15, 2025 | 6:42 PM EST
Charleston, WV — The 6C Theocratic Coalition has once again sent shockwaves through the political and cultural ndscape with the formal unveiling of a new provision in their already controversial Polygamy Law: the "Concubines Cuse." Announced earlier today in a high-profile press conference at the West Virginia State Capitol, the policy grants men under 6C rule the legal ability to register up to two concubines in addition to their four permitted wives.
The policy, presented by 6C National Communication Director Naomi Chen, outlines a rigid framework:
Concubines are barred from property ownership, voting, public office, and independent financial services.
Femme Groups must approve each registration to ensure voluntariness.
Termination of concubinage is only possible through a legally determined “exit fee.”
All concubines must be U.S. citizens and affiliated with an officially registered Femme Trust Collective.
Chen defended the cuse by referencing ancient jurisprudence, including Surah Al-Mu’minun from the Qur’an, while framing the new system as a “protective and spiritually meaningful covenant, not coercive servitude.”
Immediate Fallout:
Civil Rights Groups have condemned the policy as a "codified caste system for women." The American Feminist Alliance called it “theocratic regression wrapped in bureaucratic nguage.”
Religious leaders remain split. Some orthodox Muslim and Mormon groups voiced mild support, citing doctrinal alignment, while mainstream Christian and Jewish coalitions called it a “gross distortion of sacred w.”
Legal schors warn of conflict with federal civil rights statutes, though 6C territories currently operate in legal grey zones.
Reactions from Across the Country:
#ConcubinesCuse began trending on X (formerly Twitter), with mixed commentary.
“This is medieval,” wrote @RuthIsResisting.
“Finally—legal frameworks for alternative structures,” countered @FemmeSovereign.
In Texas, feminist leaders gathered in Austin to coordinate what they’re calling the “Free Femme Network,” which aims to resist both concubinage and Femme Group structures under 6C.
Louisiana, where 6C’s economic pilot model is underway, became the first state to receive formal applications for concubine registration by evening.
What’s Next?
Sources within the 6C’s policy wing hint that “Concubine Economics”—a sub-policy on economic dependency and asset routing through registered men—is in draft form. Rumors swirl that Naomi Chen and Elise Carter may soon return to Iowa for deeper policy rollouts.

[Legal Analysis Panel — National Policy Institute Forum, Washington D.C.]
Topic: 6C’s “Concubines Cuse” — Legal, Constitutional, and Civil Ramifications
Moderator: Dr. Sylvia Reeve, Legal Theorist, Georgetown Law
Panelists:
Prof. Martin Kellerman – Conservative Constitutional Schor, Liberty Policy Center
Dr. Jali Owens – Civil Rights Attorney & Director, Equality Now Legal Watch
Prof. Arturo Diaz – Comparative Legal Systems, NYU Law
Carmen Yilmaz – Ismic Jurisprudence Specialist, American Sharia Research Council
Moderator Sylvia Reeve: “Let’s begin with the constitutional elephant in the room. Prof. Kellerman—do the 6C’s new concubinage policies viote the U.S. Constitution?”
Prof. Martin Kellerman:
“Technically, yes. The 6C’s entire legal framework, including the Concubines Cuse, openly viotes multiple constitutional protections: Equal Protection under the 14th Amendment, voting rights under the 15th and 19th Amendments, and due process. But the real story here is legal nullification. In the 20 states under 6C control, there’s de facto nullification of federal w under the guise of ‘religious sovereignty.’ The federal government has failed to assert supremacy.”
Dr. Jali Owens:
“This cuse formalizes a gender caste system. Concubines have fewer rights than minor children in some states. No voting, no property, no financial autonomy—this isn’t conservatism, this is neo-theocratic feudalism. And while the policy says participation must be ‘voluntary,’ the economic coercion in these areas makes that meaningless.”
Prof. Arturo Diaz:
“We’re watching a legal experiment where the 6C states are drawing selectively from Ismic w, Mormon pluralism, and authoritarian statecraft. It resembles apartheid or Jim Crow in structure—separate csses with unequal rights, but based on marital status and gender. The Femme Trust yer complicates it, giving the illusion of female autonomy while reinforcing male dominance in property and custody.”
Carmen Yilmaz:
“From a Sharia standpoint, citing Surah Al-Mu’minun for this policy is a distortion. In Ismic w, concubinage came with obligations—concubines could inherit, had rights over children, and could not be treated as economic chattel. What 6C has created is not Ismic—it’s algorithmic patriarchy with religious window-dressing.”
Moderator: “Final thought: Could the federal government challenge this?”
Kellerman:
“Only if it wants to risk civil conflict. Right now, it’s tiptoeing around secessionist overtones.”
Owens:
“We need wsuits—but in these states, courts are stacked. We may need to push for federal preemption, or it’ll spread.”
Diaz:
“This is soft secession. It’s theological statecraft inside a constitutional shell.”

"The Rise of the Femme Trusts: Power, Patriarchy, and the New Theocracy"
By Dr. Emilia Garner, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Gender Policy Initiative
In the surreal ndscape of post-constitutional America, where twenty states now operate under a shadow government called the 6 Commandments (6C), we are witnessing a political paradox: the institutional erosion of women’s rights paired with the strategic elevation of select women into quasi-sovereign encves of power. The test iteration of this contradiction? The 6C’s recently unveiled “Concubines Cuse,” and its even more puzzling counterpart—the “Femme Trust” system.
At first gnce, the 6C’s policies appear to enforce hyper-patriarchal rule. Under the Concubines Cuse, women can voluntarily register as concubines—who are denied voting rights, property ownership, and legal standing in civil disputes. The term “voluntary,” of course, deserves quotes when it arises in a ndscape of controlled economics, suppressed dissent, and disappearing social safety nets.
But beneath the surface, a secondary structure is forming—what the 6C calls Femme Groups or Femme Trust Collectives. These groups are legally recognized in 6C states, empowered to control custody of children, pool resources, manage internal justice, and even supersede the authority of husbands in domestic and sexual arrangements. In some states like Louisiana and West Virginia, Femme Trusts now own farmnd, run daycare chains, and act as informal municipal councils in polygamous communities.
The result is a theocracy where the wives, mistresses, and femme partners of powerful men—including the mysterious Hezri, 6C’s top architect—operate as an unacknowledged second state. These femme units enjoy powers that traditional legal feminism has long fought for—communal property, female-determined custody, female-run social systems. But they are unelected, untouchable, and often sexually tied to theocratic power.
This is not liberation. It is curation.
The Femme Trusts aren’t designed to empower all women—they are designed to elevate the women who support the system, while concubines, dissidents, and outsiders are pushed deeper into economic and civil invisibility. The Femme Trust is the velvet glove over the iron fist: elegant, persuasive, and dangerously seductive.
Some progressive circles have been armingly slow to condemn this architecture. Perhaps it’s the inclusion of LGBTQ+ nguage in Femme Charters, or the unusually fluid structure of some Trusts that include non-married women. But make no mistake: this is not a pluralist revolution. It is patriarchal patronage dressed in polyamorous, post-gender aesthetics.
America must decide whether it will fight for a feminism grounded in rights and access—or allow itself to be lured into a world where femininity is empowered only when it submits to power.

“The Femme Future: Why 6C’s Reforms Liberate Us from Liberal Mythologies”
By Naomi Chen, National Communications Director, 6 Commandments (6C)
Dr. Emilia Garner’s test op-ed in The New York Times reveals more about the fragility of legacy feminism than it does about the reality women now experience in the 6C domain. Her nostalgia for a “rights-based” feminism—one reduced to slogans, courtrooms, and symbolic gains—fails to account for the lived economic and retional agency now emerging in Femme Trusts across the twenty sovereign states under 6C jurisdiction.
Let’s dismantle the myths one by one.
First, Dr. Garner mischaracterizes the Femme Trust Collectives as tools of patriarchal control. In truth, they are legal autonomous zones, created specifically to insute female-led communities from both state coercion and spousal overreach. In most 6C territories, Femme Trusts control nd, childrearing, and sexual contracts. Their charters are written by women. Their councils are elected by women. Their norms are enforced by women. Even husbands acknowledge the supreme authority of the femme body politic in domestic w.
This isn’t a glitch in the system. This is the system.
Second, the so-called “Concubines Cuse” is not an act of regression—it’s an honest recognition of historical precedent, modern demand, and female choice. Let’s not pretend that modern liberal states don’t already have informal concubines: mistresses, sugar babies, financially dependent partners without protection. 6C’s reform codifies a centuries-old phenomenon while protecting agency. Women who voluntarily register for concubinage enter a social contract—with clearly defined obligations and exit routes. The result is more crity, not less.
Dr. Garner derides this as “curation.” I call it engineering dignity from chaos.
Third, the obsession with voting rights and court access is a legacy hangover. Femme Trusts operate post-electorally—their power does not come from ballot boxes but from retional loyalty, economic self-sufficiency, and sovereign kinship structures. This is a new feminism—not one borrowed from Western suffragettes, but one adapted to twenty-first-century realities: declining civic trust, colpsing liberal markets, and the rise of retional governance.
And let’s address the elephant in the room: Yes, many of our most capable thinkers and reformers—Morgan Yates, Priya Varma, Elise Carter, and others—are intimately tied to the man the media calls “the mastermind.” But history shows us that revolutions often require charismatic nuclei. The real question is not whom we sleep with, but what we build afterward.
The 6C movement offers the world a glimpse into a new gender contract—one that acknowledges female plurality, retional autonomy, and interdependent governance. It will not be understood by those still clinging to obsolete dichotomies. But it will be lived by those of us who have outgrown them.
Naomi Chen holds a J.D. from Yale and formerly directed the Gender Equity Legal Network. She currently serves as 6C’s National Communications Director.
